# NuCon (Nucleares Controller)
NuCon is a Python library designed to interface with and control parameters in Nucleares, a nuclear reactor simulation game. It provides a robust, type-safe foundation for reading and writing game parameters, allowing users to easily create their own automations and control systems.
In future versions, NuCon aims to implement built-in automation features.
## Features
- Enum-based parameter system for type safety and code clarity
- Support for various parameter types including floats, integers, booleans, strings, and custom enums
- Read and write capabilities for game parameters
- Custom truthy values for status enums to simplify conditional logic
- Dummy mode for testing without connecting to the game
- Batch operations for getting multiple parameters at once
## Installation
To install NuCon, clone this repository and install via pip:
```bash
pip install -e .
```
## Usage
Here's a basic example of how to use NuCon:
```python
from nucon import Nucon, BreakerStatus
# Set the base URL for the game's API (if different from default)
Nucon.set_base_url("http://localhost:8080/")
# Enable dummy mode for testing (optional)
Nucon.set_dummy_mode(True)
# Read a parameter
core_temp = Nucon.CORE_TEMP.value
print(f"Core Temperature: {core_temp}")
# Read a parameter with an enum type
pump_status = Nucon.COOLANT_CORE_CIRCULATION_PUMP_0_STATUS.value
print(f"Pump 0 Status: {pump_status}")
# Write to a parameter
Nucon.GENERATOR_0_BREAKER.value = BreakerStatus.OPEN # or True
print(f"Generator 0 Breaker Status: {Nucon.GENERATOR_0_BREAKER.value}")
# Use custom truthy values
if Nucon.COOLANT_CORE_CIRCULATION_PUMP_0_STATUS.value:
print("Pump 0 is active")
```
## API Reference
The `Nucon` enum contains all available parameters. Each parameter is defined with:
- An ID (string)
- A type (float, int, bool, str, or a custom Enum)
- A boolean indicating whether it's writable
Parameter properties:
- `Nucon.<PARAMETER>.value`: Get or set the current value of the parameter. Assigning a new value will write it to the game.
- `Nucon.<PARAMETER>.param_type`: Get the type of the parameter
- `Nucon.<PARAMETER>.is_writable`: Check if the parameter is writable
- `Nucon.<PARAMETER>.enum_type`: Get the enum type of the parameter if it's an enum, otherwise None
Parameter methods:
- `Nucon.<PARAMETER>.read()`: Get the current value of the parameter (alias for `value`)
- `Nucon.<PARAMETER>.write(new_value, force=False)`: Write a new value to the parameter. `force` will try to write even if the parameter is known as non-writable.
Class methods:
- `Nucon.get(parameter)`: Get the value of a specific parameter. Also accepts string parameter names.
- `Nucon.set(parameter, value, force=False)`: Set the value of a specific parameter. Also accepts string parameter names.
- `Nucon.get_all_readable()`: Get a list of all readable parameters (which is all parameters)
- `Nucon.get_all_writable()`: Get a list of all writable parameters
- `Nucon.get_all()`: Get all parameter values as a dictionary
- `Nucon.get_multiple(params)`: Get values for multiple specified parameters
- `Nucon.set_base_url(url)`: Set the base URL for the game's API
- `Nucon.set_dummy_mode(dummy_mode)`: Enable or disable dummy mode for testing
Custom Enum Types:
- `PumpStatus`: Enum for pump status (INACTIVE, ACTIVE_NO_SPEED_REACHED, ACTIVE_SPEED_REACHED, REQUIRES_MAINTENANCE, NOT_INSTALLED, INSUFFICIENT_ENERGY)
- `PumpDryStatus`: Enum for pump dry status (ACTIVE_WITHOUT_FLUID, INACTIVE_OR_ACTIVE_WITH_FLUID)
- `PumpOverloadStatus`: Enum for pump overload status (ACTIVE_AND_OVERLOAD, INACTIVE_OR_ACTIVE_NO_OVERLOAD)
- `BreakerStatus`: Enum for breaker status (OPEN, CLOSED)
## Testing
NuCon includes a test suite to verify its functionality and compatibility with the Nucleares game.
### Running Tests
To run the tests:
1. Ensure the Nucleares game is running and accessible at http://localhost:8080/ (or update the URL in the test setup).
2. Install pytest: `pip install pytest`
3. Run the tests: `pytest test/test.py`
### Test Coverage
The tests verify:
- Parameter types match their definitions in NuCon
- Writable parameters can be written to
- Non-writable parameters cannot be written to, even when force-writing
- Enum parameters and their custom truthy values behave correctly
